Neoprene Gloves

The Molchanovs Neoprene Gloves give freedivers, spearos, snorkelers, and all water sports enthusiasts protection from the sun, jellyfish stings, and cuts or scrapes. Strategically-placed textured and smooth silicone coatings on your fingers and palms keep your grip secure for handling lines, gear, and equipment, while stretchy neoprene retains warmth without restricting movement. Choose 1.5mm for lighter protection in warmer conditions, and 3mm for colder water where your hands feel it first.

Warm
Neoprene traps a thin layer of water against your skin and holds it there, cutting off water circulation and keeping your hands warm through longer sessions.

Non-slip grip
A textured black silicone coating on the fingers and palms keeps your hold secure on lines, gear, and boat edges, even when conditions get rough. A smooth silicone coating on the thumb, ring, and middle fingers improves grip for removing equipment and adds durability.

Flexible
Stretchy neoprene moves with your hands so you can manage equipment and adjust your gear without fighting your gloves.

Protection
Keep your hands safe from UV exposure, jellyfish stings, scrapes from rocks and ropes, and contact with boats and equipment.

Easy to store
Internal hanging loops make it easy to dry and store your gloves between sessions.

Subtle design
A small Molchanovs logo sits on the inner edge of the wrist cuff, with a minimalist M stripes and ‘molchanovs’ text is located along the outer side of the cuff.

Care Instructions

• Rinse your gloves thoroughly in fresh water after every use. Do not let salt water dry on the neoprene and do not machine wash.
• After rinsing, allow your gloves to air dry away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and clothes dryers.
• Store your dry gloves in a cool, dry place. Avoid folding them for extended periods; hang them using the internal loops or lay them flat.
• Keep your gloves away from sharp objects, petroleum products, and abrasive surfaces that could damage the neoprene or silicone coating.
• If your gloves tear, use neoprene cement to repair them, available at most diving centers or watersports stores. If you have doubts about repairing them, contact us at [email protected].
